The Lakers are 1-10 when Kobe scores 30+ points, and 8-3 when they get more balanced offense.
They have know this for like forever , and Kobe won't change, when his team mates miss shots , he PANICKS and starts shooting every time down court. He never lets anybody else ever get going . Kobe shoots TOO MUCH and neeeds to ride the bench , so he can get some rest , so he can play a little defense . He is on the court about 10 minutes too much.
I don't know can you really blame him though? Duhon? Morris? Antwan is very inconsistent and Dwight isnt doing squat right now, fumbles the ball, just passes it doesn't even want the ball
What do you mean you dont know how you can blame him? In 9 wins he has averaged 16 shots a game and 22 points per game while getting almost 7 assists per game.
In 13 losses he averages 22 shots per game and 34 points a game and his assists drop down to 3.5 per.
The Lakers have lost 8 straight games where Kobe scored 30+. The amazing stats here is in their last 13 games. The are 5 and 8. In the 8 losses, Kobe had 30+ each game. In those 5 wins Kobe hit 29 once, with the four games hitting 14, 19, 25, and 22.
I know Duhon and Morris arent superstars but its no lie that when Kobe passes the ball and gets more teammates involved, they are a better team.
